    Thanks. Trying for highway gearing though. Speedometer has been adjusted, odometer not so much.

        Bummer on the backorder, I guess I can wait.
        At least that means they will be fresh from the factory tires instead of ones that have been sitting on a shelf for a year or two. Maybe people are picking up on the quality of the tires and they can't churn them out fast enough since they probably don't make them in huge quantities.

        I also need to get a new tire for my 98 Monte, was also looking at and Achilles tire.

        I am sure someone has mentioned this in the past, but Achilles is a pretty poor choice of name for a tire brand. lol

            Just ordered me some 122s. $171 shipped from Tire Easy

            Decided to try the 122s first, plus Tireeasy didn't carry Platinums in 175-60-13s.
